The moon is in bigger-than-life Leo, and Mercury is newly exploring Leo's fiery realm of the sky, making this a hot time to express yourself, not only in word, but in deed. Grand gestures are well-received. Practice is far more effective than preaching. People may debate semantics, but no one can argue against a living, breathing example.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The stars declare that you were meant for nobility. Nobility requires effort, though. If you do something you don't want to do every day, you'll make peace with what falls under the category of "duty."
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your astral gift is the ability to recognize a golden moment when you see it -- and when don't you see it? Now, you not only notice the glories of ordinary living, you celebrate them.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have extraordinary beginner's luck, so start anew instead of spending time on middles and endings. What you do today affects your professional life for years to come.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). A romantic relationship needs a little spark -- be spontaneous and bold. There's not a moment to waste in worrying whether or not someone loves you, unless that person is you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The planets assist you in being more conscious of the affect you have on others. It's best not to carry your career attitude into your personal relationships (unless you're addicted to drama).
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 29). Your mojo is a 10 this year. People make up reasons to be around you. A romantic proposition in the next three months could change everything. Make investments in July for a quick return on your money. August features higher learning, which paves the way for increased income in years to come. A Libra or a Sagittarius makes an adventurous partner. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 8, 45, 3 and 10.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Since you're the boss of your own show, step up. It's OK to make mistakes as long as you learn from them. The afternoon highlights your broad appeal and animal magnetism. You're hot!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Trivial matters lead to more substantial work, so don't be afraid to amuse yourself with seemingly frivolous distractions. After all, if you don't follow your interests, life can be very uninspiring.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your mind churns with different versions of the same basic question: "Will I be OK if things change?" Strengthen your faith. All magic springs from your connection with the creative force.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). As much as you try to compromise, certain people can't help but push you to the limit -- it's their nature. If it crosses your boundaries or hurts your feelings, just say "no way!"
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're in an extravagant, impulsive and outspoken mood, which could inspire a tantrum before the night is through. Chalk it up to your artistic temperament.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Love is the last thing on your mind. Bring it to the front. Consider that romance needs equal parts breathing room and attentiveness. Too much of one or the other knocks the relationship off balance.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Today it's a blast to play where the rules are a little loose, or better yet, completely undefined. With your fertile imagination and strong moral conscience, you'll make up your own guidelines.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I've been in sales for years, and I've just been laid off again for the third time in two years. I can't get motivated. I feel like I don't know where to look for a job. I've also studied voice and, in my younger days, wanted to act, but I need income. I'm so behind on my bills. My birthday is Feb. 4, 1955."
I see your talents as mischievous children. They're tired of weeping in the corner of your life, and they have conspired to overturn your work environment so you would have time to make them the stars of your world once again. You've spent many years subverting your desires in order to help someone else get rich -- a logical choice at the time, but now you're ready for something different. In fact, you could still make money in sales -- more money than you ever have in the past. As an altruistic and creative Aquarius, you have to believe that what you're selling really helps people live better lives. It doesn't have to be something grand, it just has to be truly helpful. Use this time off to get back into singing, to indulge those little "talent children" inside you. Limit your job search to one hour per day, and spend the rest of your time on you, you, you!
CELEBRITY PROFILES: She tells us to get our "freak on" and "work it," which is why we love hip-hop superstar Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott. Cancer is a nurturing sign, and often, Cancer performers naturally fall into the realm of "role model." Missy Elliott is a modern day feminist who speaks her mind. I see her conquering the world of film in 2007, as she lands a serious role that demonstrates a dramatic talent.

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
